A976

The now-unclassified Foundry Street, Dunfermline, the eastern end of the former A976

The A976 was a short A-road in Dunfermline, linking the A907 with the A823 to the north of the town centre. It started on the A907 at Rumblingwell, running parallel and to the north of the now-disused railway line from Alloa. The route continued ahead where the A907 turned south, and ran along Baldridgeburn, then into Mill Street and finally Foundry Street, passing under the old factory bridge to reach its termination on the A823, Grants Bank Street, now renamed Pilmuir Street.

Initially unclassified, the A976 came into being in the late 1920s as a makeshift northern bypass of the town. It remained as an A road into the 1980s, still being shown on its original route on the 1986 Landranger map but had been downgraded by 1989 when the OS 1:250k sheet shows the B9155 instead. The western section of the route, along Baldridgeburn, has been renumbered B9155, although that then turns north east on to Broomhead Drive, a road built in the 1960s; the eastern half of the ex-A976 is now therefore unclassified.
